BirdGunner Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Hi all! Looking for an update on the new scenario depot project... I know it is a huge undertaking but have not heard anything new about it lately, so was wondering when can we expect to see the site come online...

British Tommy Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 GJK is the guy working on it. Best thing to do is post a message at the Proving grounds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirdGunner Posted October 13, 2005 Author Share Posted October 13, 2005 I had placed the question there a couple of days ago, but had not heard anything yet. So figured throw the question out here and see if anyone else might have heard anything new. There are more inputs on the forum here than at TPG. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks BirdGunner I have the new design done (graphics) and about 70% of the coding for the basic portion of the site (enabling file uploads, author administration). The fancy stuff (ratings) is next on my to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJK Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Spent the past couple of days getting the template ready - I'm curious for feedback, particularly from Mac/Safari users as it's untested in that browser: LINK Note that the images are not optimized, they're at full resolution, so that's on the "to do" list. Also, nothing here is funcional at this point, just getting the template worked out. Feedback welcomed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicky Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 OSX 10.4.2 Safari 2.0.1 (412.5) Looks fine - much better than the old depot Screenshot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJK Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I'm very close to having a spot that we can store/search for/download scenarios. I just need to finish up on some advanced features - but I'm thinking that I can do that even after the site is live, so I may just launch what I have. Look for something next week - that's what I'm shooting for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patboy Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Hi all, I remember many months ago a question I already asked : Is it possible that "scenarios designers" begin to name their own scenarios by campaign theatre? example: Po-39-Sep01 "name" for Poland Ru-41-Jun22 "name" for Russia Tu-43-May11 "name" for Tunisia Li-42-Oct12 "name" For Libya Fr-44-Jun06 "name" for France etc etc... It's more easy to find 'em in zip folder, then you can easily install scenarios in each CM version you have. example : En-40-Aug15 "name" for CMAK sealion Fr-44-Jun12 "name" for CMAK Normandy Be-44-Dec16 "name" for CMAK ETO Ru-44-Jul22 "name" For CMBB Si-43-Jul23 "name" for CMAK etc etc.... Thanks for all "scenarios designers" to keep in mind this old request for an old CM battlefronter. Cheers Pat 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Naming conventions like that have the problem that the CM scenario list shows only so many characters in the name field, then it starts removing them from the beginning... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Excellent work. Will you need files from authors or were you able to get them from the old Scenario Depot? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Originally posted by Frenchy: Excellent work. Will you need files from authors or were you able to get them from the old Scenario Depot? Well, we're going to have a big, empty, slate basically. Since the details of each scenario are stored in the database, they must be entered in manually. Unfortunately, Adm. Keth lost all that he had so I was never given a backup of that database. So, it'll have to be a community project to restore old scenarios while of course adding new ones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Ok. I still have mine so getting them uploaded will not be a problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easytarget Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 so, how things going at this point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 I'm going through some final testing now. Unless something comes up, I should have the site live by new years - New Years day release perhaps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
